Biography
Jack Anderson joined the law school at Queen’s as a lecturer in 2004. Previously he taught at the University of Limerick from where he was appointed a Senior Research Scholar by the Irish Research Council for Humanities & Social Sciences in 2002. In 2003 he was a Visiting Fellow at the Faculty of Law, Australian National University, Canberra. Promoted to senior lecturer in 2008 and reader in 2011, he currently teaches on the law of torts, contemporary issues in the law of obligations, alternative dispute resolution; and sports law. His primary research interest is the relationship between sport and the law and he has published widely in the area including, most recently, Modern Sports Law (Oxford, Hart, 2010). His current research interest is in the legal issues surrounding the possible links between gambling, financial crime and corruption in sport. In 2011, aspects of the second element to this research were carried out by way of a fellowship to the Australian Research Council’s Centre of Excellence for Policing and Security in Brisbane and with the support of a Leverhulme Trust Study Abroad Fellowship. He is also editing a collection entitled Landmark Cases in Sports Law (The Hague, Asser, 2012), which features contributions form 25 leading international sports law academics and practitioners. Jack contributes regularly to the media in Britain and Ireland on sports law matters and blogs at http://blogs.qub.ac.uk/sportslaw. He is a qualified arbitrator, being a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (FCIArb) and, in conjunction with the Law Centre (NI) and the NI Ombudsman, is the author of a public information booklet on Alternatives to Court in Northern Ireland, 2011 (http://www.lawcentreni.org/Publications/AlternativesToCourt.pdf) Jack is also a member of a number of sports dispute resolution tribunals including the UK Sports Dispute Resolution Panel, Just Sport Ireland and the Gaelic Athletic Association’s Disputes Resolution Authority.
